The first point is to streamline the design, the high price of housing era for our young people to decorate has become a big expense.... It's not easy to save up tens of thousands of dollars, how come it's not enough once you're renovating? Just contact with the renovation company, will not feel how high the price of a single item, but the total price of the final total is often ridiculously high. In fact, the reason for the high cost of renovation, often appear in the "waste". This waste not only exists in the construction, but also exists in the design, or first exist in the design, in fact, many renovation companies in order to improve the cost, always encourage consumers to add items in the design of the renovation, that this is now very popular ah do this is very good-looking ah what. And for localized design, they will take a few books of decoration atlas to let you pick from. So copy and put together, the content of the decoration and the project is a lot, the offer naturally rise. This design program, always feel bad, but can not say why. In fact, the good decoration, is to spend money in the place to spend. A large number of flower design, not only waste, but also give people a very vulgar feeling. Especially in Zhoushan, the design is very fancy but always feel very earthy.... Therefore, if you want to save money on renovation, we must put good design pass, cut out unnecessary decoration projects, fundamentally reduce the cost of decoration. But the streamlined design is not equal to do not design, simple design and lack of design. The real role of the designer lies in the ability to loosen up and tighten up the money on the knife's edge, the ink is like gold.
Living room and bedroom which is important
The current house type is the hall small bedroom, in this case, we may wish to invest in the living room a little more, the bedroom renovation less spend some. In fact, the living room called living room is more appropriate. This space is used to receive guests in addition to more functions or family reunions, entertainment place. Therefore, some people say that the living room is the face of the family. For the face of the decoration, you can spend more money accordingly. The most important thing to decorate the living room is to reflect the characteristics of the family. Spend more money is relative, but there is no need to pile up high-grade materials, the key is to decorate the approach should be novel, in the configuration of furniture, decorations, the choice of elegant and generous. In contrast, the bedroom decoration and decoration can be simple. Because the function of the bedroom is relatively simple, just for people to rest space. Decoration to simple, cozy mainly, not too carved, but the bed must be very comfortable.
Top wall to be treated differently
Currently, the room's net height is generally low, about 2.50 to 2.80 meters. In order not to produce a sense of depression, in the top of the treatment to simple for the best. From the human visual habits, the top of the room is the least important place, so there is no need to do too complicated. Walls are either covered by furniture, or as a background for hanging paintings and other accessories, but also need to leave more blank walls to breathe, so the walls really do not need to spend more money on decoration, especially there is no need to do a lot of lines to shorten the sense of height. For the floor decoration, is the place that need to work. Because the material and color of the floor decoration materials, determines the decorative style of the room. And the floor of the frequency of use, obviously higher than the walls and ceiling, so to use the texture and color are better materials. At present, a variety of floor tiles and composite wood flooring, has become the main floor materials used in some family rooms. But from the texture, decorative effect in terms of several aspects, composite wood flooring is more suitable for family use than floor tiles.
Water and electricity basic engineering points to note
One, electrical installation works
General
1, distribution boxes should be based on the indoor distribution box after the meter of the different power of electrical equipment were wired for power supply; high-power home appliances should be independently wired for the installation of sockets.
2, electrical wires are divided into: lighting lines, socket lines and air-conditioning lines.
3, weak electricity, that is, telephone lines, network lines, cable TV lines, audio lines, video lines, audio lines and so on.
4, wiring, phase line and zero line color should be different; the same residential phase line (L) color should be uniform, the zero line (N) should be blue, the protection line (PE) must be yellow and green two-color line.
5, the completion of the project should be provided to the owner of the electrical engineering as-built drawings.
Construction process and points
¨ Trenching and pipe laying
Construction process1. Immediately after entering the site, accurately pop up the horizontal line (elevation 100-120cm).
2. First, use the cutter to make a slit in the concrete, and then chisel it with a flat chisel.
Construction Points1, a variety of wire and water pipe slots should advocate cutting machine grooving, to achieve horizontal and vertical.
2, wall grooving to deep: concrete walls have 2-3CM cement mortar protective layer, rebar in the wall there is 1.5CM protective layer, so at least 4CM can be opened, even if you touch the rebar, but behind the rebar is also the same as the concrete, so you can bypass the rebar.
3, require workers to try to ensure that the wire grooving 3.5MM deep, is really encountered in the rebar can not open the deep place is required to lay outside the wire mesh, so as to avoid these parts of the future paint cracking.
4, over the bridge, sealed with cement, just should not be sealed too much, sealed a little fixed the following is good.
5, the same indoor power, telephone, television and other socket panels should be at the same level elevation, the height difference should be less than 5mm.
6, power sockets from the ground 300, switch 1.4 meters.
7, power lines and sockets and TV lines and sockets should not be less than 50cm horizontal spacing.
8, strong wires and weak wires shall not be threaded into the same pipe. The distance between the strong and weak power is at least 30cm or more, otherwise there will be interference, remember, remember.
9, the parallel distance between the electrical wires and heating, hot water, gas pipe should not be less than 30cm, the cross distance should not be less than 10cm.
10, interior decoration to ensure that the safety requirements of the gas pipeline and equipment, electrical pipelines and equipment and gas pipe horizontal net distance should not be less than 10cm, electrical wires and gas cross net distance of not less than 3cm.
11, Strong wires and weak wires cross on the use of iron separation, so that the signal is not interfered with the power supply.
12, the ground wire pipe to be fixed. First hit a nail on the ground, and then wrap the wire, and then tie the wire pipe with the wire. Walls and ceiling if not in the slot should also be fixed.
13, each connector with a crimp cap, and then all with black waterproof electrical tape all wrapped tightly,
14, the norms of the intersection of the wire pipe should be the ground slotted or use the bridge. Line pipe from the keel through the following words, should not simply take the keel padding practice, but should be in the back of the keel groove so that the line pipe through and can buckle the line pipe.
15, in the pipe clamp fixing above the best is to drill holes, stake, and then fixed.
Strong electrical wires:
2, electrical distribution must be strictly in accordance with the owner's requirements and construction drawings and construction standards construction, no private changes. Should be based on the location of electrical equipment, determine the direction of the pipeline, elevation and the location of switches and sockets.
3, power line wiring, the cross-sectional area of the wire used should meet the maximum output power of electrical equipment.
4, power socket and all kinds of junction box according to the unified high and low standards of construction, prohibit all kinds of junction box using water-based gypsum powder patch, must use high grade cement mortar patch, all kinds of dark box four sides of the gap must be greater than 2cm above, to facilitate the cement mortar can be embedded into the batch, forbidding the wall holes and the size of the box is almost the same.
5, wire pipe and wire box must use the locking interface.
6, try not to joints in the middle of the wiring, or long time, easy contact.
7, dark wiring must be piped. In the wall trenching directly buried wires may cause leakage and then cause a fire. When the length of the pipeline more than 15m or two right-angle bends, should be installed additional cable box.
8, electrical wires must do socket 2.5m2 line, air conditioning line 2.5m2 line, stand air conditioning 4 m2 line, are required to unidirectional line, lighting 1.5m2 line unidirectional line, into the house line more than 4 m2 line. Air conditioning lines are now lined up in new houses. So, in general the air conditioning line does not need to be increased.
9, wire wiring, pay attention to the color, that is, in accordance with international practice with different colors of wire. Yellow and green lines for grounding, blue line is the center line, red, yellow, green three are connected to the phase line (fire). In a household, there should not be only one color of phase wire, but different colors should be used to differentiate the circuits. In lighting switches, especially duplex switches, it is better to differentiate the control wires. But in this regard, the national standard is not mandatory. Color separation is actually the most important point in the construction of electrical wiring, because it provides great convenience for future troubleshooting. This is a back door, must be left well. Especially the ground and the middle wire, with other colors will kill people.
10, electrical wires must be used brand and quality of single-core wire string pipe discharge, wire pipe as far as possible to use PVC 6-point pipe. The same circuit wire should be threaded into the same pipe, but the total number of roots in the pipe should not exceed 8, the total cross-sectional area of the wire (including insulation) should not exceed 40% of the cross-sectional area of the pipe, and to do the pull freely.
11, 4 points of the pipe can only wear 1.5 of the lighting line, and a pipe can only wear a maximum of 3 wires. 6 points of the pipe can wear 2.5 of the wire, a pipe can only wear a maximum of 3 2.5 of the wire.
12, the construction of the wire head junction must be placed in the electrical box, the joints must be tightened after the use of wire tightening with crimp caps. Threaded into the piping wire joints should be located in the junction box, the joints should be firmly lapped, insulation tape wrapping should be uniform and tight.
13, between the conductor and the conductor to ground resistance must be greater than 0.5MΩ.
14, PVC pipe elbow should be used to bend the whole pipe, only in the case of necessity can be used below the 900 elbow.
15, PVC pipe butt joints are to be used, and at the same time to glue firmly. And the connection between the PVC pipe and the wire box must use a special sleeve sleeve, never directly with PVC pipe and wire box butt.
16, electrical conduit is supposed to be taped before stringing wires into.
17, wire pipe if cut, and another one put together parts, to use the pipe sleeve. Connected to the wire box to use the pressure foot cap.
18, wire butt handling? Often used in industry, no welding, the use of special crimp terminals, the voltage drop is very small, pull-out force is greater than 200n (my own test), the domestic ks terminals, crimping tool 200 or so, terminals 0.2 or so / 1000 minimum package, imported more expensive. Same as my unit electrical engineer said, I am going to use professional terminal crimping.
19, each box to leave a certain amount of wire (for future maintenance and replacement), the exposed metal should be as small as possible. Try to get rid of dust. Connections should be strong and secure. The national standard requires that wire connections must be crimped caps, but less than 1% of the home improvement market does this.
20, wire box wire to extend about 15 centimeters, and to ensure that you can pull, you can test.
21, my nest is a small staggered layer, the length of the network cable and other lines is also very long, the middle is not inevitable to have some bends in the middle of the place, the network cable I counted, there are seven or eight elbows, the line certainly can not be pumped. The way is there: in two or three elbow place to set a relay box, each section can be pumped on it.
1. If the home will cook very often, try to give up the open kitchen, there will be a problem of fumes
2. bathroom, kitchen, small water treasure, hot water comes quickly, more convenient to use
3. hood in the Chinese than European suction, European good-looking is not used.
4. Power outlets can be installed as much as possible to install more, otherwise the home is full of towing board
5. Toilet must be reserved on the side of the power outlet, otherwise the Washley can not be installed
6. Bathtub PK showers, choose one or the other, or recommended shower, bathtub installed, and never soak in the bath is not a minority. Shower does not mean shower room, shower room glass wipe up or very tired, you can also choose to hang a shower curtain
7. If there are two bathrooms, install a bathtub is still necessary to soak large pieces of clothing, to help the little baby bath is a good choice, Jacuzzi bathtub is not necessary, soak a few times, but also particularly expensive
8. If you are not not the home of the burner, the kitchen is best to install the air-conditioning
9.
9. If you like the Internet, every room on every wall, are reserved at least 2 ports and more than 2 outlets. The wireless router can indeed solve the problem, but it is said that sometimes it is still unstable
10. I regret that the kitchen flue did not play out, and now as long as there are people in the building to cook, the hood must be turned on at the same time, or else the smell of fumes in the house
11. The location of the various sockets in the room, with the furniture bought later size deviation, a lot of wasted sockets
12. 12. If you can buy in the mall, you should never ask the carpenter to do ！！！！！ Unless this carpentry craft is quite good
13. floor color to be slightly lighter, it is not easy to see the gray, kitchen and bathroom floor tiles, on the contrary, slightly deeper, it is not easy to find hair everywhere, so that the most resistant to dirt
14. dining room is best to install a ceiling fan, super comfortable
15. storage space as much as possible, need to be stowed away after the occupation of the miscellaneous things will be more and more
16. balcony wall is best to use tiles, more waterproof than paint
17. regret to buy and install so many lights, in fact, the fixed use of a few.
18. Toilet vanity is glass, super easy to get dirty
19. Group purchasing in fact can not save a few dollars, buy no sell fine, to believe that the sky will not fall out of the pie plate for no reason. A set of house decoration down to ten thousand yuan for the unit, or more to the market to walk around and see, compare three never out of date. Do not be so-called "price cutter" at the group buying will be blown hot-headed on the spot order. Even the bright home network do not dare to say that their goods absolutely low price, not to mention other so-called group-buying network. 20. bed forgot to install the switch, every time you have to get out of bed to turn off the lights, winter is very sad
21. bathroom hardware, faucets and so on is absolutely a penny a penny goods
22. try not to stay in the decoration of the rubbing can not wipe the place, the dead center of the sanitation is very difficult to get
23. will be the future of the family to have a child, it is important that we do not have to worry about the dead center of the house.
23. If you are planning to have a baby, make sure to calculate the size of the crib and reserve a place for the crib next to the bed
24. It is recommended to install hot and cold water pipes in all faucets, which is not costly to install a little bit more during the renovation, but it is super hard to fix it afterward
25. The fewer the number of impractical decorations in the room, the better.
26. When buying anything, pay attention to the size of the door inside the home, do not buy a good move can not go in
27. Solid wood flooring feel good but need to maintain the composite floor cleaning up easy
28. Invisible door is in the look of the unhelpful, want to open the air are troublesome
29. Walk-in closet good is good, but it's easier to accumulate dust, open shelves, shelves and so on (no door)
What do you mean by "good"? The old junction box, the electrician suggested that the new indoor, and now find him this suggestion is very valuable. 32, leakage protector and air switch must be used brand-name.
33, under the counter basin than the counter basin show, good-looking, good cleaning. With undercounter basin faucet to pay attention to, taking into account the thickness of the basin edge, faucet mouth to be longer. 34, the top corner of the wall without any modification is also very beautiful, but in advance to find the stage of painters and painters clearly put forward. The top corner of the pop-up line helps to make the top corner line straight.
35, in the line groove of the cement surface batch putty before the surface treatment is very important, for the surface is not strong with a cleaning ball treatment is very appropriate. 36, gypsum is suitable for patching larger holes in the wall, of course, if the hole is too large or need to use cement.
37, the back of the glass must be well protected from paint, it is difficult to clean!
38, vegetable basin faucet must be able to switch with the back of the hand, the kind of finger must not be easy to keep clean, the hands of oil when turning up also have difficulties.
39, luxury automatic drying racks price water is too big, after comparing some of the lesser-known brands in the structural design instead of winning the first-tier brands, the price is much lower.
40, you can consider the use of metal sockets on the ground, this socket is very expensive more than 100, but it is quite convenient, usually flush with the ground, a foot can be popped out of the socket. Suitable for large living rooms. Or installed in the dining room table under the table, used to insert the hot pot (to prevent walking back and forth when hanging wires)
41, storage room. Already have TX said, just I did not do the cabinet door, looks not very beautiful, put clothes in the cabinet and easy to dirty. 42, bed starter frame (is that what it's called). I am a professional bed company to buy fabric beds, and spent 350 yuan to add such a thing, there is a handle at the end of the bed, a pull, the bed will be turned up, revealing the bottom of the storage space, so great oh!
43, impractical double rod towel rack! Currently and single-pole use, basically will not be to the inner hanging bar and then sun towels
44, think the cabinet inside the garbage can is not practical enough, not as good as put outside. And don't install door type trash can and countertop trash can, summer time open cabinet door will be very stinky. It's better to put the trash can outside.
45, dining table next to the cabinet is good, can place some things, very convenient.
46, in my opinion, the mop bucket in the performance of the requirements are not high, you can build one out of their own, laying and the surrounding environment in line with the tiles or mosaics that is beautiful, but also save money.
47, the bathroom can be nailed nail hooks or clothes hooks used to hang something.
48, bathroom design a small cupboard to put clothes, no longer have to worry about taking a shower and forget to take clean clothes.
49, washing machine with drying seriously impractical, in addition to the only yellow mold days of the year, and evil giant. Thick clothes, bath towels or drying, let the sun disinfection how good. I have been overdrawn, need to save some silver.
50, even in the laundry room to do a laundry pool, used to hand wash some things. Originally thought to use less, so buy a very cheap faucet. I did not expect this laundry pool is really convenient, became my family use the highest frequency of a washing area. What rags ah, socks ah, floor towels ah, all washed in it, even wash hands mostly there.
51, the installation of the light belt is really not practical, after the completion of the renovation to the present did not open. There are guests to just SHOW a spotlight, I simply forgot to install a self this thing. The original is to open PARTY when romantic, now open spotlights are not many opportunities.
52, the biggest lesson is that the simpler the decoration, the better, less pollution, less money, worry.
53, practical things: ① well-designed storage room. ② North balcony with a sink for washing dirt. Distinguished from the bathroom sink and kitchen sink and dishwashing bucket. ③The faucet that can be pulled out to wash hair in the bathroom. (Except for TX, where you never wash your hair at the basin). ④Easy to clean floor and appropriate cleaning tools. ⑤ Countertop work lights for the kitchen.
54, buy a toilet must measure the distance between the holes in their own homes, not to buy and then go back to the return of that is really ......
55, kitchen and bathroom floor tiles paste good not dry before the best measure of the level, to see the lowest point is not the floor leakage, not to wait for the drying of the team after the renovation of the tug-of-war, die a lot of cells.
56, restroom shower room must be large enough size, and to use transparent glass, so that the inside of the shower will not appear narrow. 57, tile hooking should not use white cement hook. Not a month into the black seam, ugly dead. As a result, they bought their own hook hook, that tired
58, the cabinet under the artificial stone should be padded with the back of the board, the results of the installation found that there is no, and now do not dare to cut the meat on it, promised to give me a patch installed almost two months have not been installed (only to sanding a time).
59, don't believe the designer's compulsion. Of course, you can visit a few more decoration companies, from each design to extract what is really useful, the key is what you want to dress up your home.
60, if the original manufacturer or developer of the floor drain has installed the kind of anti-odor "bowl", do not take out.
61, bathroom floor tile paste good after the water test, if the water is slow to rework immediately. My home water flow is slow, then softened a bit, and now bathing is always a bit of water, making our master bath hundreds of silver shower head are idle, now always wondering how to remedy.
62, install the sink to consider and mirror, put the shelf of the cup, the relative position of the towel rack.
63, buy a mirror to consider the location of the mirror lamp, if you do not want to install a mirror lamp, the size of the mirror to be able to cover the line reserved for the mirror lamp is best.
64, put the washing machine on the balcony to do a small cabinet, easy to put some sundries, such as laundry detergent within the debris. Both beautiful and practical 65, be sure to keep an eye on the upstairs waterproofing .... Otherwise, the water dripping down from upstairs, make the hanging cabinet, the wall a mess ....
66, do not blindly follow the online group buying, I later found that some of their own to cut the price will be cheaper than group buying. Personally recommended bright residence network (bright residence decojoy), the above things are really cheap, but to be in the premise of group buying.
67, the TV back wall must be more than a few outlets, TV, DVD .... A pendulum, you will find that the outlet is not enough.
68, change the waterway before we have to consider the future installed washbasin of the big kind, for example, is the left basin or the right basin, water intake and drainage should be located in what place. Otherwise, change the good only to find that the washbasin but can not be installed!
69, about the curtains, we'd better keep a copy of the size of that one, to the boss that can not be less size. If less, how how. Or watch him cut the cloth himself.
70, the construction process of decoration: (1) into the field, demolition of walls, wall. (2) bathroom, kitchen floor to do 24 hours closed water test (developers need to complete this task). (3) chiseling grooves, water and electricity remodeling and acceptance. (4) buried wire trench hidden utility remodeling works, closed water test without leakage to start doing waterproofing works. (5) bathroom, kitchen wall tiles. (6) carpentry into the field, hanging ceiling, plaster corner line. (7) package door cover, window cover. Make wooden cabinet frame. (8) Synchronized production of a variety of wooden doors, modeling doors and flat pressure. (9) Wooden panel brush dust paint (varnish). (10) Window sill marble countertop leveling and laying. (11) Wood veneer paste, line production and fine installation. (12) Wall base treatment, sanding, leveling. (13) Household goods, door edge joints paste self-adhesive (protective edge). (14) Wall oil ICI at least three times. (15) home furnishings paint into the field, fill nail eyes, paint. (16) Treatment of corners, laying floor tiles, solid wood or composite wood flooring, waterproof marble strips, skirting. (17) lamps and lanterns, sanitary ware, handles, door locks installation debugging. (18) Clean up the health, floor tile patching, withdrawal. (19) Decoration company internal preliminary acceptance. (20) three-party appointment time formal acceptance, delivery of the owner.
71, the flue before the valve installed back, must be wiped clean, to ensure that the valve can be opened and closed freely and can be opened to the maximum, otherwise it will affect the hood smoke effect. Can be installed in the installation of the ceiling to leave two not installed, such as the hood installed and try to be correct and then put the ceiling installed. 72, in the living room and dining room such a large space, the ceiling can not do it.
73, the alignment of the air conditioning bit to think, the power supply as close as possible to the air conditioning, lest the installation of air conditioning to see a power line, leaving a trace of regret. 74, personally measure and record the various sizes available in the house, you can cover up the size of the building floor plan and then re-fuse labeling, the final size will have a direct impact on the design of the renovation and the purchase of furniture.
75, the line is not good small house if you choose black walnut is always not enough atmosphere, then there needs to be a trade-off, either to accommodate the actual or insist on their own ideas, of course, it is best to take both
76, began to look for decorators. In terms of personal experience, if it is not particularly large and intends to simple decoration, it seems to find guerrilla more cost-effective. It is best to be introduced after someone else installed, you also went to see and agree with the person in charge of the renovation of the feeling is even more important, sense of responsibility and appreciation of the level of how, the former is more critical, because if it is only simple to install, in fact, almost all of those jobs outside the mix will do, but the quality of the quality of the good or bad can depend on the sense of responsibility.
77, the main furniture such as sofas, closets, dining tables and chairs, cabinets, etc. It is best to look ahead of time, if running around is too tiring, you can find a few shopping environment, large home plaza shopping, the basic trend to see, so the next thing you have to do is to slowly sift out the right things according to their own style of preconceived ideas. Some people grasp the style is better, some people grasp the color is accurate, it does not matter, anyway, there is time to consider, if you wait until the renovation of the clearing, false step to see the furniture will inevitably end up reluctantly accepted and not very much like. 78, on the furniture has been optimistic about the best to write down the size, and then to the room virtual future furnishings.
79, when buying things necessary documents must be saved, this move may exist in the late return, exchange situation is absolutely beneficial. Especially some important items of the shopping ticket, manuals, etc., because many things are warranty period, vouchers lost will be more trouble.
